On today’s show, we’ll talk about deals airlines have with one another to take on the other company’s passengers in the event of an emergency; news that productivity in the U.S. is down; and why cities and states aren’t investing in infrastructure.

There’s a lot happening in the world.  Through it all, Marketplace is here for you. 

You rely on Marketplace to break down the world’s events and tell you how it affects you in a fact-based, approachable way. We rely on your financial support to keep making that possible. 

Your donation today powers the independent journalism that you rely on. For just $5/month, you can help sustain Marketplace so we can keep reporting on the things that matter to you.
